VIII. Care and Maintenance
(After your dive)
1) After each dive, soak the sealed light in fresh water for about
20 minutes to remove any residual salt, sand and dirt. Never
allow the saltwater to dry on the light.
2) Push the power button about 10 times to clean any saltwater
or sand trapped under the button.
3) Let the water drain out of the small holes located at the
bottom of Flex Arm. (If using Flex Arms - see page 14 for
optional accessories).
4) Dry off the light with a towel. Make sure you and the light are
dry before opening the waterproof battery cap.
5) Remove battery and allow light to thoroughly dry before
storage.
6) Clean the gold-plated contacts on battery and inside battery
compartment EVERYTIME before charging the battery. Use
a clean cotton cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol to
thoroughly clean contacts. Not cleaning the contacts may
permanently damage the gold plating and result in the device
not powering on.
7) Never use any detergents, cleaners, solvents or chemicals to
clean the light. Keep sunscreen lotions/sprays away from all
plastic materials, which is known to cause chemical reaction
and consequential damage.
8) Insert a fresh Moisture-Muncher capsule (SL911 - sold
separately) inside the battery compartment during storage
to help keep the inside dry and free of corrosion or mildew
during storage.
